Reviews

[Mikaela S.]

{Thrift find}
Yet another dictionary to add to my collection (I believe this is my 8th). The design of this particular dictionary is for those who spend their mornings, coffee/bathroom breaks, or a solitary moment in their car doing the daily New York Times crossword challenge or the crossword section of the local newspaper. Every entry/word has a definition, similar words (which have the number of letters next to them incase you get lazy and don’t want to count on your fingers), and a phrase— all of which could/are clues on the crossword.
